Dal Santo on the Gold Coast: "They are showing serious cracks. I don't think it's in any doubt that they need help. You rarely see two drubbings like that in a row. That was so far off the mark – it was non-AFL."

Andy: "I wonder how many AFL commissioners sit down each week and watch the Gold Coast Suns play footy. It's an arm of the AFL's expansion plans. It has taken football there because of its strategic value, not because there's 500,000 screaming out for football. It is soulless."
